After some words of advice were tossed around on the forums, we dropped our healing line-up to 4 and stuck with the tried and tested 3 tanks. As is always the case, the groove was not in place and at the end of phase 1; we had 7 Guardians up... CUT YOU DUMB ****'s. Round 2 found that groove again as we reached P2 with a single guardian up; dispatched in short order. Phase 2 showed signs of improvement with much shorter durations of tentacle rape for the people left up top. DPS was starting to focus on the tasks at hand and it was looking good aside from a number of nubups. Progress was happening.
A 3rd attempt saw us pushing hard towards the end of phase 2. It felt good.
Then a Molotov happened.
A double fault of attempts with abysmal Phase 1 failure... YOU @!$#ING STUPID **!@*(!@$%!*&(%!&(%&!(*@%!.
The swift verbal beating chastened and then solidified the raider's spirits, steeling them for a fantastic attempt afterwards. Phase 1 blew by; Phase 2 was almost a complete success. Then Phase 3 happened...
Wait... We didn't explain Phase 3 at all... SHIMATA!!!
In an amazing and strange occurrence, Nora actually thought that... maybe they read the strat... did they... no they couldn't... but... it's happening... adds tanked... dying... boss DPS... sanity refills... what on earth was going on!?!?!??!
In an amazing back flip in guild standards, people either gained the ability to read a fight and understand the mechanics almost instantly or a number of people I thought were illiterate actually managed to read a strat!
4% before 3 healers got popped off due to a random add wanting a healer fisting. The wipe happened but not before the guild realized. Hey... We can do this!!!
Midi: Sorry guys, 5am start, gotta go. *$@%!
The obviously sane answer to this was "get another tank". But we don't really do things conventionally... (actually we didn't really have anything else we could take...) MOAR DPS. 4 healers, 2 Tanks, 19 DPS.
Yogg died next pull. Molotov goes to 13/14.
Congratulations guys and gals. An amazing effort and fantastic work. Time to head towards Algalon.

You know, It looks almost identical to the 10man kill but with an extra 15 nublets...
